Shachar: A Shabbat Alarm

Wake for Shacharit and Mincha on Shabbat and Chag—with everything prepared ahead of time.

Set your usual times once. Shachar prepares the weeks ahead using the location you choose, so each wake-up notification is ready before Shabbat or Chag begins. Use fixed times, or set Shacharit around sunrise and Mincha around Havdalah as the seasons change.

Taking a Shabbat nap? Add a wake-up time for Mincha. Away for Shabbat? Plan for the city where you’ll actually be.

Chagim are covered too. Follow the Diaspora or Israel calendar, and adjust alarms for individual Chag days.

Before candle lighting, Readiness shows you that the weeks ahead are covered. Sound Check lets you lock your iPhone and make sure your chosen sound comes through.

At the scheduled time, your chosen 28-second sound plays once through an iPhone notification and stops on its own.

Shachar follows the times and calendar you choose. It isn’t a halachic authority, so confirm local practice with your Posek.
